Stilbenoids in lianas of Gnetum parvifolium.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Five new stilbene dimers were isolated from the lianas of Gnetum parvifolium in addition to known stilbenoids. The structures of the compounds were established on the basis of spectroscopic evidence, including long-range coupling and nuclear Overhauser effect experiments, in NMR spectrum. Among the isolates, 2b-hydroxyampelopsin F showed potent inhibitory activity in the Maillard reaction.

Gnetum is a small, unique group of Gnetophyta with a controversial phylogenetic position. Gnetum parvifolium is an important Chinese traditional medicinal plant, which is rich in bioactive compounds such as flavonoids and stilbenoids. These compounds provide significant medicinal effects, mostly as antioxidant, anticancer, and antibacterial agents. However, the mechanisms involved in the biosyn...
متن کاملStilbenoids isolated from the seeds of Melinjo (Gnetum gnemon L.) and their biological activity.
A 50% EtOH extract of the dried endosperms of melinjo (Gnetum gnemon L.) was purified by a combination of column chromatography, including highly porous polymer, octadecylated silica (ODS), hydroxypropylated dextran (LH-20), and silica gel, resulting in the isolation of a new stilbenoid 1, named gnetin L, along with five previously identified stilbenoids 2-6 (gnetin C, gnemonosides A, C, and D,...
متن کاملAcclimation of seedlings of Gnetum leyboldii Tul. (Gnetaceae) to light changes in a tropical rain forest.
The neotropical liana Gnetum leyboldii (Gnetaceae) is a gymnosperm that resembles angiosperms in wood anatomy, overall morphology, and seed dispersal mechanism. Like other woody lianas, seedlings germinate in the shaded forest understory and start climbing towards the canopy, being exposed to sites with extreme differences in light conditions. However, the extent of physiological and structural...
متن کاملAINTEGUMENTA homolog expression in Gnetum (gymnosperms) and implications for the evolution of ovulate axes in seed plants.
The expression of GpANTL1, a homolog of AINTEGUMENTA (ANT) found in the gymnosperm Gnetum parvifolium, was analyzed by RT-PCR and in situ hybridization. GpANTL1 was expressed in the leaf primordia, root tips, and young ovules. In the ovulate axis, expression was detected as four distinct rings around the outer, middle, and inner envelope primordia as well as around the nucellar tip. This patter...
متن کاملBiological Activities of Stilbenoids
Stilbenoids are a group of naturally occurring phenolic compounds found in various plant species. They share a common backbone structure known as stilbene, but differ in the nature and position of substituents. Stilbenoids are classified as phytoalexins, which are antimicrobial compounds produced de novo in plants to protect against fungal infection and toxins. In this review, the biological ef...
